Trying to pay the mortgage Sale!

As you know, my husband lost his job this week, so I am trying to raise funds to pay the mortgage and electric bill this month. So I'm having a sale! Also, the custom slot is not selling so I am reverting it to a normal slot if anyone is interested.

Sale Details! The Tinker Bells soaker below includes the shipping and insurance :)



And since the skeins of Gaia I thought were 4 really fluffy ounce turned out to be 8 ounces, LOL! You can now use $4 HC per skein to purchase them. Buy more than one item and get an extra dollar per item off your order. For example, buy this fabulous one-of-a-kind sock yarn

and the pattern and you can save $5 on the pattern with the coupon code available on my Yahoo Group , spend $2HC on the skein and get $2 off for buying 2 items. You just saved $9! Add an 8 oz skein of Gaia Organic Merino like this one

and you can add another $5 savings - $4HC and $1 for having a third item!

Hey Night Owls! Surprise :)

Well, I don't know if anyone is awake - but I am in the process of stocking a Small Tunisian Soaker called "Tinker Bells" that is hot off the hooks. It is purple and green with little blue bell like flowers on the drawstring. Perfect for your little pixie! I will make it immediately active - so first come first serve :)

When it rains it pours!

Well, I tend not to air my dirty laundry in public. But at some point you just think - enough already!! I am sorry if I have not been as available this last month or so as I normally am. On top of creating the new website, completing the pattern, stocking my Hyenacart, doing 2 customs, dyeing a huge wholesale yarn order for Woolgirl (shipped it today so be on the lookout for her stocking!) we have been dealing with one thing after another in our personal lives. I don't like to complain because we are very fortunate and our problems are minor compared to so many others'. But I swear I have had enough! This month my husband went to the ER and missed 2 weeks of work, his Father had a stroke, my best friend's step-father had a heart attack, I'm sick, my son is sick and teething and his two broken front teeth are getting worse, my husband threw out his back, and now this morning my husband lost his job! Its going to get better right!!?? Anyway, end of rant - just had to blow off some steam so I can put up a strong front for the hubby when he gets home from applying for jobs. I am sure something better is just around the corner... right?

Thanks for listening,

Almost done with previews!

Well its 3:15 in the morning and I am calling it a night! Will try to add the last of the previews tomorrow night. I hope you all like the new spring colorways. I had to leave my comfort zone and try some new things, LOL! I wanted to add some "less busy and complicated" colorways - to quote a gentle critic who shall remain nameless ;) I can't wait to see how they work up - should be really pretty - especially where the colors overlap!

Night/Morning!
